After 2 weeks of big barleywines as our Wednesday Special Tap, we’ll change it up this week with an authentic Belgian-style Quadrupel- a strong, deep amber-colored ale known for its smoothness and complexity.
This is the first time Sierra Nevada has released this beer, but if it’s nearly as good as the Dubbel or Saison from their Ovila series, we’re in for a treat! From the brewery, “This silky ale is rich, mahogany brown in color with a velvety malt aroma, spiked with hints of dried cherry, fig, raisin, and plum notes. A full and creamy body offers layers of flavor including a perfume-like wave of intense dark fruits and caramel-like maltiness. Rich and warming, this complex ale should be shared among friends in the true spirit of the season.” 10.4% ABV
A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this beer will go toward the restoration of the historic Ovila chapter house building, on the grounds of the Abbey of New Clairvaux. This medieval chapter house was begun in 1190 near the village of Trillo, Spain.
